Try 28psi cold Dave!

dave1 · 25-02-2009, 01:24 PM

the other thing i dont like is im aware of the cost and wear rate so it is stoping me driving sideways and that is half the point having this thing

ive had mine on for a couple of weeks now with stock suspension - and IMO they transform the car! although my car had conti's on which i hate anyway. i'm running 29psi from cold and it took about 80 miles for them to behave nicley when first fitted. Like you said try a few more miles before you write them off.

Good point jibm, Cups are very slippy slidey when new. Go real careful for the first few miles. Warm them up and there's no better road tyre. They take some time in colder conditions but I had a great drive last Sunday, the first time ambient temps rose above 10 degrees round here. I forgot how good they were.
